I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I’m sorry, PMM. That’s a hard decision. For what it’s worth, hospice was incredibly kind to my mom, and made her final weeks as comfortable as possible.

It was honestly such a relief when my Dad started getting hospice care. We didn’t have to worry about getting him out of the apartment for medical appointments and he could stop taking medicine other than ones that eased pain or his Parkinson’s symptoms. Oh and Medicare covered hospice so they could cut back on home health visits which Medicare does not cover! He was under hospice care at for about 3 months before he passed and it was a much more peaceful time than the past few years of his life had been in many ways.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
~ma to your mom, Erika.
And wishing comfort and peace to yours, PMM. That's a tough situation. For what it's worth, when my cousin passed under hospice care a few years ago it did feel like a gift that it happened in comfortable surroundings with family gathered around.
